It applies to hose assemblies operating at pressures up to 1 400 kPa and for vacuum systems at pressures not greater than 60 kPa absolute. This International Standard does not specify the dimensions and allocation of the gas-specific inlet and outlet connectors for the hose assemblies. This International Standard does not specify requirements for coaxial hoses used for the supply and removal of air for driving surgical tools. This International Standard does not specify the intended uses of hose assemblies.
